Since September 2001, Global Research has been bringing our readers a broad spectrum of voices analyzing global situations, from a coverage of the US-NATO wars in the Middle East to the economic machinations of the financial elite.

And we will continue to do so because we believe that access to information is the key to the truth.

Unfortunately, due to the upcoming “End of the World”, we herewith advise our readers that we will be closing down the Centre for Research on Globalization (CRG) at the end of the Mayan Calendar, midnight 12.00, Central Mexican time.

If  you trust the independent Media and believe in the Mayan Prophecy, it is not too late to make a last minute donation to Global Research. 

Please, however, do not send us post-dated checks.

No refunds after midnight.

Online donations  before the “End of the World” hits the Western hemisphere would be much appreciated

If you prefer fact over fiction, do not trust the independent media, go to the Washington Post or the New York Times.

The End of the World concept is a falsehood and misinterpretation of Mayan thought

According to Ricardo Cajas, president of the Colectivo de Organizaciones Indígenas de Guatemala,  12/21/2012 does not represent an end of humanity but a new calendar cycle involving “changes in human consciousness.” (Translation). (quoted by Washington’s Blog)

What is at stake is a renewal, the unfolding of a new era. 

According to Mayan sage Pedro Celestino Yac Noj: “The 21st is for giving thanks and gratitude and the 22nd [of December] welcomes the new cycle, a new dawn.” (Ibid)

Rather than being the end of the world,  December 21, 2012  marks the beginning of a new long cycle.

Help us develop in the course of the next cycle of the Mayan calendar.  

If  this message reaches you after the “End of the World” has formally commenced,  your donation will contribute, in the spirit of  Mayan renewal, to “a transition,  a better time for humankind.”

For Truth in Media,

Our best wishes to all our readers, for Christmas and the holiday season,

for Peace, Democracy and Livelihood in the New Year

While we are not facing an imminent “End of the World” scenario, the World is nonetheless at the juncture of the most serious economic and social crisis in modern history. The outbreak of a full fledged war against Syria and Iran could potentially lead humanity into a Third World War scenario.

The US possesses an impressive arsenal of weapons which it is being used to threaten the World.

An Orwellian police state has emerged, with spying and eves-dropping implemented at a global level.

Big Brother is instated at the height of the electronic age, with sophisticated data banks and surveillance techniques, operating Worldwide.
